NATIONAL CRIME AGENCY, ENGLAND AND WALES
Under sections 9(2)(a) and 10(1)(a) of the Crime and Courts Act 2013 (c. 22) the Director General of the National Crime Agency (“NCA”) and other NCA officers, respectively, can be designated as persons having the powers and privileges of a constable. This Order modifies the application of certain provisions in Part 4 of the Extradition Act 2003 (c. 41) which provide that certain powers may be exercised only with the authorisation of a police officer of at least the rank of inspector. It enables a designated NCA officer of at least grade 3 to authorise designated NCA officers when they are exercising their powers under these provisions.
